Logline
A cautious-to-risky 14-year-old boy starts to engage in reckless behaviors, causing his mother to
experience a period of vulnerability and apathy as he adapts to the consequences of his own
decisions.
He is a passionate filmmaker who writes, directs, and edits
his own projects. His journey into the audiovisual world
began while studying to become an actor, but he soon
realized that his true calling was behind the camera. This led
him to study at the prestigious Eliseo Subiela Film School in
Buenos Aires, Argentina. Throughout his career, he has had
the privilege of collaborating with talented professionals who
have helped bring his creative vision to life. Currently, he is
eager to continue expanding his knowledge, refining his
skills, and exploring new aspects of filmmaking.
